Why can't we get Toyota to over promise on a car that looks simple and normal unlike Mirai and let's see how many orders they get. Hydrogen needs hype and a boost from mainstream usage (FCEVs). Tesla has been able to hype electric cars by designing simple but good looking cars. Why not focus on vans and small trucks first as they pollute like crazy and they can hide huge hydrogen tank easily?
ITM is doing a great job but the bus manufacturers and car manufacturers are not doing a good job. Even tesla Semi is getting pre-orders. Where is the Fuel Cell truck, bus or normal car for pre-order by an auto company? ITM needs an hydrogen tesla.
Sandman,
You've been quiet lately and ignoring my rubbish posts. Anyway my target is 62p and that won't happen unless this poor company gets saved by a takeover.
2re,
I told you, no offer means we would not rally. Good or ok results mean no plunge but stay flat. Keep dreaming mate........GD has to go plus that takeover offer has to come very soon.
I don't believe the numbers, GD has come up with something good but come on the first half is always bad. Anyway second half must be great.........next year should be good to sell out.

Seems you've been in some shares that have risen recently or taken over......JOG / IMG. If you say mid 40s, that means no offer then so what might push us up? Sales and profit won't as I am in retail business and it is hard to pass on cost at the moment.
Just don't look at the SP tomorrow if the company is not "for sale". We really don't need an offer but just announcing that PFD is for sale could start the ball rolling. Bitcoin billionaires in china might want to diversify, negative rate borrowers in Japan can find a place to stash excess cash...........Saudi billionaires fretting over their wealth can park some here. Give us the cash......last year I said who is buying gocompare shares, I though PFD would do better but nope GD is EVIL.
the sector needs consolidation and automation. I thought we all needed to eat and PFD brands are everywhere but how wrong can i be. I guess GD was expecting 100p offer plus CEO role and juicy LTIPs from McC.
If GD hasn't engineered a takeover offer or cut costs to the bone then we can all expect another plunge. I am in retail / bakery sector and it is tough. Ingredients have gone right up but it is hard to increase prices with so much competition. Butter price has gone through the roof, add other ingredients plus transport costs then we have a problem.
Defensive, stable, takeover target, great brand, groceries + financials + general retail. Amazon could buy SBRY without sneezing........it is so cheap!
This whole saga amounts to private investor abuse. He turns down a good offer without offering an acceptable offer publicly. He then invites Nissin to block any new offer..........Darby should buy us out at 65p simple.
41p - wow! I just hope GD comes good this time...........no excuses but good results and share buyback or divi. If not just invite Chinese or Japanese bidders. Nissin would sell for 70p - 75p if the new buyer keeps them on as production partner.
